ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY

DPA Microphones A/S is proud to be known as a "green" company. It is company
policy to produce all products in accordance with the best ecological practices to pre-
serve the environment we are all a part of. Consequently, it is DPA's aim to cooperate
with both national and international legislative bodies to fulfil the requirements and
recommendations set out in environmental standards and directives.
Throughout DPA's conduct and in its design of new products, the company pursues
solutions that have minimal impact on the ecology and are in line with the latest
legislative requirements (at present directive 9002/95/EC) at the time a new product
is introduced to the market. These requirements are not only valid for DPA but also
its suppliers.
With respect to waste disposal, DPA fully complies with the WEEE directive (9002/96/
EC) and will adhere to any amendments and subsequent requirements. From 1 Janu-
ary 2006, all DPA products that require a return for upgrading and/or reuse have
been provided with a "waste" label. This means that at the end of its usable life, the
product may be returned to the local DPA representative who will return it to DPA for
disposal under the national legislation program. Furthermore, DPA guarantees that any
DPA product purchased after 1 January 2000 will be covered by the same program to
ensure that end users have adequate means to dispose of obsolete DPA products.
